Biographie:
Thomas De Witt Talmage (January 7, 1832 - April 12, 1902) was an American preacher, clergyman, and divine who served as a pastor in the Reformed Church in America and the Presbyterian Church. He was a famous religious leader in the United States during the mid- to late-nineteenth century, arguably only matched as a pulpit orator by Henry Ward Beecher. He also lectured in front of large crowds in England. Talmage was a well-known reformer in New York City throughout the 1860s and 1970s, and he was frequently active in crusades against vice and crime. Dr. Talmage stopped preaching in his later years and focused on editing, writing, and speaking. He was the editor of the Christian at Work (1873-76) in New York, the Advance (1877-79) in Chicago, Frank Leslie's Sunday Magazine (1879-89) in New York, and the Christian Herald (1890-1902) in New York at various times. He was believed to have preached to 8,000 people each week, and for many years his sermons were frequently published in over 3,000 newspapers, reaching an estimated 25,000,000 readers.
